I. Can I omit the black without changing meaning in this case?
II. "its" is optional or totally unnecessary?


The society's progress and development depends on that of its people.
The progress and development of society depends on that of its people.
The sentences' grammar are fine?

Please.
The progress and development of a society depends on its people.
The progress and development of a society depends on that of its people.
Hope this helps a bit!
